I remember Bailey getting into a shouting match with a fan while still on horse back when he was coming back to get unsaddled after getting soundly beat on a big favorite in a NY Bred stakes race.

the only other thing Borel could of done was take back and stalk Life At Ten. But Rachel broke on top already and LAT is the one who sat back.

The great part of the Saratoga experience is the access and freedom fans have to horses, trainers, jockeys and other personalities throughout the horse industry. And five or ten idiots had to finish a great racing weekend by telling Calvin Borel what he should or shouldn't have done

LEARN THE GAME BEFORE YOU SPEAK!
1. Are you 12?

2. Why is Rachel is quotations?

3. I was a little surprised by the uneducated fans bit... I'd have thought it was more the diehards who would yell at him.

4. It's called passion. There is so much passion in this sport we all love. Easy for me to say it's a good thing since I've never been yelled at by random people but come on... it happens. I (am no fan of Calvins but) would never do it and I presume you wouldn't but the reality is that it happens and the jocks can take it. It must suck and everything but they know to expect it.

Calvin made like $2000 for his 2 minutes of work in the race and then taking some crap on the walk back. Not bad if you ask me.

Hell, I have to deal with being compared to bat guano on here, and then be accused of having to look the word up to know what it means.

Most Diehards are educated about the game my friend, It's the one's who think they know the game that do the yelling and have no idea where the "fetlock joint" on a horse is located

Wow you're brilliant.

Only brilliant people get pissed at degenerates talking down to a jockey. If only you had the courage to confront them instead of holding it in and posting your true feelings here.

P.S. Is your forum name the college you went to and how many years it took to graduate?

Believe me being from Brooklyn, I have the courage to confront anyone including yourself. In reference to Education, I have two Masters degree, One from a university and one from the "street" so if you want to question my courage face to face, I would be glad to oblige

Yeah is that what happened on Sunday, tough guy? You sure what happened was you steaming over a bunch of thugs giving your man crush grief and holding it in until you got home and taking it out on Nerdy Trail?

Fight a stranger over the internet? Being from Brooklyn (which automatically makes you tough LOL) you should focus your anger on stupid s.hit in your area...like the Mosque near the twin towers site.

I have no problem with you or anything you've said, but my general rule of thumb is that anyone who spouts off about their education, they are usually pretty lame. And closed minded.

Riot for example.
